Testimonials




	Dear Christine, How could we even begin to thank you enough? When I look back on our wedding day and review the memories, pictures, stores and relaxed atmosphere it is all thanks to you! I think had I not had your help, our wedding day would have lacked the magic Dan and I had both envisioned. There wasn’t a time when I emailed or called that I wasn’t able to hear back from you within minutes. I felt like you were the dream bridesmaid every girl should have. Without your organization I would have missed appointments, or not been able to speak up and tell a vendor if there was something I did not like and needed improving. You were also our voice of reason, advice and comfort. We truly enjoyed being engaged and had fun at all events because of your help. We were able to relax and just let you take care of the details so that we could have fun along with our guests. We were even receiving thank you notes from guests after the wedding! They all enjoyed themselves immensely and we certainly gave you the credit. I think my mother was ready to adopt you, she continues to ask how you are and compliment a job well done. I wanted her to relax as well and having your help really made a difference – she wasn’t rushing or frantic and didn’t miss a moment of her very last child’s wedding day. Something she thought she’d never be able to do! When I needed to vent about anything you lent a friendly ear. I will definitely miss our road trips to check out vendors and locations, I miss our little chats. Thank you so much from the bottom of our hearts for everything. I don’t think we’ll ever be able to thank you enough. Love, *Crystal, Dan and Zoey*.

	Dear Christine: It has been almost 6 months since our beautiful wedding. There is no way we could have done it without you. Living up north like we did and wanting to marry in Toronto was a huge undertaking. But you made it so easy on us. Thanks to you my stress level was zip. I never “dreamed” of my perfect wedding growing up but with your help I got it. It was so pretty, the flowers, the cake, the location all of which you found for us. Thank you so much for everything. We would gladly recommend your services, keep up the great work. Sincerely, Lisa and Morgan

	Dear Christine: When we were ready to prepare for our wedding we knew that we needed help. Neither of us had enough knowledge on how to create a wedding and we did not want to add significant stress to our busy lives. Since we were both out of town most of the year, we decided to look for a wedding planner to take on the challenge. We are grateful for finding you. Our special day would not have been as successful and beautiful if were not for your guidance, advice, and help throughout the year. Guests are still continuing to comment on how much they enjoyed our ceremony and reception. Thank you for making our wedding journey easier away from home. Sincerely, Cam & Laura

	Dear Christine, When we first decided to look into wedding planners, we had no idea what to expect. Then, we started researching, and the costs were so phenomenal, we almost threw out the whole idea. Then, we found you! From our first meeting, we knew we'd found someone who would work with us to create exactly the wedding we'd dreamed about. Then, when you quoted your fee, we thought we MUST be dreaming! We loved the way that you listened to what we wanted, and then gave advice and suggestions, but always paid attention to helping us stay within our set budget. The flexibility you showed in terms of finding times to meet with us, and taking into account our erratic work schedules, made things so much easier. We so appreciated your making time to attend the rehearsal dinner and offering your opinions and suggestions about the food, and having you there at the ceremony made the whole day run so smoothly. We didn't have to think about anything at all, and, thanks to you, we were able to just relax and enjoy it all! All of the recommendations you made, from the photographer to the cake maker to the decor (and so on and so on), turned out wonderfully, and your background research and input at every level, from the ceremony to the rehearsal dinner, to our choice of honeymoon locales, made the wedding everything we'd hoped for, and more. We honestly can't thank you enough. There is absolutely nothing we would have changed about our wedding day. You helped us to make it absolutely perfect. Thanks so much, Christine! *Heather & Drake*.

	Thanks so much Christine! We knew we had made the right choice when we first met with you and you agreed to help plan our Tuscan Garden party (aka surprise wedding) in our backyard. What a coincidence that you grew up just around the corner! Although we only needed a few of the more traditional wedding items (e.g. caterers, rentals and flowers), you helped us with the choices and provided great recommendations. The caterers (Presidential Gourmet) were wonderful to deal with and our guests thoroughly enjoyed the Tuscan menu, once they got over the shock that they just witnessed our surprise wedding. Your flower arrangements were absolutely beautiful and the table centrepieces were fabulous, more that what we had hoped for. We thank you so much for everything you did and would not hesitate to recommend you to others. Ciao! *Vija & Bob*

	Dear Christine, Brian and I would like to express our sincere thanks for helping us to plan our unforgettable wedding! At times it was tough and stressful to plan our wedding around both our military commitments, but you handled it with an unbreakable ease. Thank you for being our little reminder to do what we needed to do, giving us suggestions that we never would have thought of. Thank you for mediating and showing us that when two people have completely separate wants for their wedding day, that there can be a compromise that makes both parties happy. You were with us from the beginning right until the end, and we don’t know what we would have done without you. You do wonderful work and we wish you the greatest success, you were worth every single last penny! sincerely *Brian and Jenn Beaton*

	Christine, I'd always heard that planning a wedding was a huge undertaking, still, I didn't realize just how much planning and how many details were involved. I honestly would have been lost without your help. I really appreciate how much time and care you put into this. You definitely went above and beyond to help me, especially when I was too busy to attend to something. I can't tell you how many people have approached Peter and I to say how amazing our wedding was. I thought it was amazing too. Thanks again. I'll be giving your name to anyone in need of your services. *Lynn Grosskopf*

	Dear Christine, We just wanted to thank you from the bottom of our hearts for all the wonderful work you did planning our wedding. We couldn't have pulled it off without your help. Love always *Nadia and Glen Padassery*

	Dear Christine, We would like to thank you very much for all your hard work. Your service far exceeded our expectations and made our day special. We just could not have managed without you, especially living so far away. Just a week before the wedding we were in a panic after discovering that the Marriage Office had posted the authorization documents to the wrong address and that they could not be sent on to us in the UK in time. However, you dealt with the situation wonderfully and delivered the documents to us in person when we arrived in Toronto. Thank you ever so much. We shall always have happy memories of our wedding day and you are very much a part of them. We would have absolutely no hesitation recommending your services, especially to anyone in the UK planning a wedding in Toronto or other areas of southern Ontario. We thought that you gave excellent value for money and everything was planned within budget. We would not recommend planning a wedding without you! Best wishes *Sue & Mike Dean* North Wales, UK

	Christine, Lisa and I would like to express our sincere gratitude for making our wedding day magical. Please feel free to share our experience with your prospective clients. Working with you was a pleasure and your services were invaluable. Throughout the event the guests kept asking, "How did you plan all of this?" We would have loved to have taken credit, but it was you turning our vision into reality - that made the day a lifetime memory for all. The day: With Christine's help my partner and I arranged for a same-sex wedding (50+ guests) to take place in Niagara-on-the-Lake. We were located in Florida and never had an opportunity to visit Canada until the big event. Christine managed every detail from the venue selection to ensuring our guests made it home safely following the reception. Christine mapped out our initial budget and kept us informed all along the way. Her creative vision, great sense of humour and endless patience were all evident and appreciated. Lisa and I highly recommend the services of 'Dream into Reality'. We really had no idea how special the day would be; magical is the only word that seems to describe it. Christine, thank-you again! *Tamara Nicola* Heathrow, FL, USA

	Dear Christine, I've finally set time aside to write my wedding thank you notes and I could not forget you. After all there may not have been a wedding without your invaluable referrals and advice. The photographs were fabulous and my flowers were perfect. It may not seem like a big deal to you, but after talking to you and following up with the florist and photographer everything else fell into place. Much thanks. I shall keep in touch. Until then take care. Sincerely, Alison

	Dear Christine, We wanted to express our sincere thanks for all of your help with the planning of our wedding. You were a pleasure to work with and really helped to keep the stress levels down.
